Question

How long should i wait?

Jae Pak, MD · Answer

If you want to have eyebrow surgery ask your doctor when it may be a good time.  In general you should wait until you are healed from other surgeries.

Anthony Bared, MD, FACS · Answer

If you have already had a blepharoplasty and rhinoplasty you would only need to wait until after the immediate healing to have an eyebrow transplant.  Not very much time needs to elapse between these procedures as long as you have healed.

Ryan Welter, MD · Answer

Post surgical care in an eyebrow transplant requires some attention to the graft sights and rest.  There is usually some associated swelling of the transplanted area.  I would recommend near full recovery from your other procedures before transplanting your brows.  Talk with the surgeon doing your other surgeries, but I would guess a minimum of four weeks for recovery should be planned.

it is best to ask your doctor that is performing the procedure to find out their suggestion. I usually recommend to wait about a week.

After I get eyelid surgery to do an eyebrow transplant?  You can have it once all of the swelling is gone. A month is a good time frame to wait.
